The minister of Motherwell North Parish Church and his wife Helen got fired up for Christian Aid Week this year with the construction of a ‘slum survivor shack’ outside their church.
A shack as a sign of how millions of people in the developing world live was an idea that the couple had been mulling over for quite a while.
‘The response from the community was fantastic,’ said Helen Pope, who helped her husband 'man' the shack over Sunday and Monday. Many people stopped by to donate money and 'on the first night we were given a bag of coal for our fire’.
A ‘quiz and curry’ night held in the village of Trefor in north Wales has raised more than £40 for Christian Aid.
The evening attracted eight teams representing local societies, workplaces and other organisations.
‘Interesting quiz and not a bad curry either!’ was the comment of ‘Angylion Dafydd’ (David’s Angels), one of the teams taking part.

Last Saturday (10 May) nearly 400 people of all ages walked eight circuits of the Newton Abbott Racecourse (totalling 10 miles).
John Chettleborough, Christian Aid's field officer for Nigeria, took part in the event. He was impressed by how much everyone knew about the issues Christian Aid works on. 'I learned more about Christian Aid than I thought,' he said, 'These people really know about development!'
John was also impressed that the event had become a family affair. 'I met a dad who told me he'd been doing the walk every year since he was a child, and now he's here with his kids.'
The event is set to raise an amazing £20,000 for Christian Aid.

Not only were these youngsters from Woodley, near Reading, prepared to auction their time and do household chores for the parents and others for Christian Aid. They also went head-to-head with the highest bidders in a series of challenges that included a penalty shoot-out, Malteser roulette (it involved chilli sauce, apparently!), and Sumo wrestling.
The youth group, which was also joined by its vicar in a Sumo suit, raised around £500 for Christian Aid Week.
